According to reports, the San Francisco 49ers are interested in giving quarterback Nate Davis a chance to prove himself in today's game.

Davis was taken with the 171st overall selection in the 2009 NFL draft. When the team did so, I was enticed by his potential. Now that I've seen flashes of what he can do, I firmly believe he should overtake David Carr as the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart.

So far, in limited preseason action, Davis has thrown for 398 yards and 2 touchdowns and has completed nearly 62 percent of his pass attempts.
